1) the lack of a "breadcrumb" feature. Clicking "back" isn't as ideal because it's not a refreshed version of the page, and I hate having to go to the main menu all the time just to get back to the forum I was just in. I would also like to be able to forum jump from any thread.

2) no visual indication that I have unread posts in my subscribed threads, without actually going into menu >> subscriptions. There used to be a big red number.

3) when I click on subscribed threads (or just threads I've read part of), sometimes (rarely) it takes me to the first unread post as it should, but more often it either takes me to the first post, or the top of the last page of posts.

I'm not having any issues getting to the first unread post at this point. Seems to work every time for me. I'm using the default Android browser. Also, YAY to threads with new replies being bolded now.

Issues others have mentioned I would also like to see resolved:

-Don't show I have unread PMs if it's really only notifications

-Show the number of subscribed threads with new replies in the side menu

-Make picture posting possible

-The "up" button should take you to the top of the page, in my opinion. A button to take you to the forum should have the name of the forum or something similar.

I had a love/hate relationship with the ever-present toolbar on the old mobile version, but there really should be a faster way of accessing it. If it was swipe-outable from the side, that might be nice.

If you are having issues on Mobile please try the free TapaTalk App for mobile viewing. It will solve many of the problems you guys are experiencing while we work on the others. We activated it to give you guys another mobile option.

Something I just noticed, as I finally had a chance to get back on the desktop version...apparently signatures don't post (even to the desktop version) when you reply on mobile, even if it's your default to include signatures.

Can someone please tell me how to find the groups list? I have tried everything. I think.

I'm on an iPhone (with tapatalk) and the only I've been able to get to group is to use the desktop setting on my phone.

I have let our tech team know about the signature issue, thank you for letting be know about it. Wrenmoon when you are on Taptalk do you see the menu option on the very top left side of the screen, the three little lines. Press that an that will give you more options, go to threads, welcome mothering, connect with other moms and then you will see groups

I also noticed that the search function is not functioning and I have let our tech team know about that issue as well.

MDC really needs have "breadcrumb trail" added to help determine where new posts are located. For example, red dot "title" (# replies) in forum/subforum last post by username. I think it is needed in the desktop version as well.

One of my subscribed threads (~ Expecting Our Rainbow Babies ~ May chat) keeps showing up bold, as if there are new unread posts, but there are not. This has happened to me several times, mostly with this thread, occasionally with others. This despite not using the back button to go back to my thread subscriptions. Other threads I read at the same time correctly show there are no new posts.

I haven't downloaded Tapatalk yet. Can the site admins, or someone who has Tapatalk, answer a couple of questions for me before I download it? I don't want to install it only to find that it doesn't remedy my concerns.

Will the app make it so I can tell which forum I'm in if I open a thread from New Posts? (And, preferably, show me which forum each "New Post" is in even before I click on it?)

Will the app make it so that, after reading a thread, I can navigate back to the forum in one click without using the "back" button on my browser?

I use tapatalk, and yes, when you are in the timeline function, it lists the forum that the post is a member of so you can tell if you really want to reply to it or not. I haven't seen that yet on the mobile version.

Tapatalk is a separate app and I can get back to the main forum with with a click.

So tonight I couldn't get the site to load at all. I tried in dolphin, Apollo and Safari. They all just went to a white screen when I clicked on the MDC link. The web adders was in the address bar but that was it. Then, after a few hours, it loaded but loaded the desktop site not the mobile site. But, when I logged in it went to the mobile version.

The not loading/white screen has happened *many* times since the changeover but never for as long and never with the eventual loading of the desktop site.

This morning it loaded immediately in dolphin but loaded the desktop version until I'd logged in. I'm fine with that. It has always been an intermittent problem though, so I don't know if it's fixed or just working this morning. I'm happy to update in a few days.

I'm still having this issue with this particular thread, and this thread only (among my subscribed threads, anyway - there is a thread or two in my DDC that show up as if there are new messages when I am in the forum, even though I've read the whole thing, but I'm not subscribed to those.)

Report this post is now a button on mobile. Our creative team will change it to an image at some point soon but wanted to get the functionality out to you all asap. I also added a subscribe/unsubscribe button at the bottom of the page next to reply if you want to subscribe or unsub from a thread.

Thanks for the great changes! It is becoming much more user friendly.
But.....can we please have an edit button

Hmmm... I do have an edit button, and have for awhile. It's by the reply button on posts I've written.

Also, YAY for the subscribe/unsubscribe button, and the arrows that let you jump to the top and bottom of the page.

I'm happy to have the post numbers, too. However, I think having the additional user info (post count and join date) adds a bit too much clutter to the mobile version. That could just be me, though...what do others think?
